Happy birthday to my former 'X

[kiwigtx]

Yep, just like an elective cesarean, my car was scheduled to be born on Wednesday 27th of May, 1970.

Happy 50th Birthday ole girl.

Thanks for all the happy memories over 21 years.

Missed, but not forgotten.

Nice Air Grabber! Why does it say 440+6 on the hood and have a 4-bbl air cleaner?

Thought you were talking about this x. She's broken hearted.

We don’t often get a birthday request for an ex but in this case since it’s an X that certainly makes a difference. Happy Birthday X!

My human X is tomorrow.....and no, I'm not wishing her a happy one but happy birthday to your X!!

It had a 6BBL on it since 1978, and that's how I bought it. I converted back 4BBL only about 5 years ago, and never repainted the hood.
Personal preference. It now has the 6BBL carbs being rebuilt by the current owner.

This Road Runner looks like it has 14x6 Rallye wheels with F70-14 Polyglas tires all around. Is this a factory 440+6 that came with these wheel and tire sizes originally?

Could you post more photos of this car please? I'd like to see what those wheels and tires look like from the side and rear 3/4 view.
